Groundwater is a valuable natural resource, but we often do not know where and how deep it is. Most of our potable water usually comes from groundwater wells. The construction of a water well requires knowledge of where to drill, but first, you need to find locations with groundwater potential. Finding groundwater is a process that requires geoscientific expertise and technology such as geophysical instruments and a drilling rig. The actual construction of the water well is a different step and process. Performing a geophysical survey before drilling a water well is wise because it reduces the risk of drilling a dried well. Various geophysical exploration methods help find groundwater. The Seismoelectric method is one of them. This video provides a real example of a Seismoelectric survey for groundwater exploration in central Texas, USA.
